Fri, 22 Jan 2010 02:31:05 +0000http://durbansings.wordpress.com/?p=845#comment-121Thanks for getting back to me Claudia, and for reading my blog. It only functions as a place to post my class assignments at the moment. I read your project update and took a look at PASS and Vibro as well. This kind of work is close to my heart and I very much want to see where this goes. Have you made any contact with the youth slam poetry movement in the US? There seems to be a great affinity. I’m currently interning with Groundswell, a cultural activist collective. I’m also working on a personal project that collaborates between spoken poetry, indie music, and short films. I’d like to keep you updated with my work as I move along, and I will certainly do a remix of something from your archive. I may also be able to involve other artists in remixes. Are there other collaborative/filed recording/community projects like this?

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 17:13:36 +0000http://durbansings.wordpress.com/?p=845#comment-120greetings Jesse, many thanks for your post and interest.
we are many. so would be great if we’d correspond via the blog. as there can be resonances from all over. we are keen to engage in correspondence. one-offs and on-going (like in the ‘letters from…’ pages). in writing or exchange of creative productions.
and yes, your correspondence can be included in the forthcoming DURBAN SINGS publication. in response to your enquiry we started to put up some suggestions above where to start listening. the ‘skype conversations’ with intercultural-communication students on “the letters from Windsor CA” page might also offer interesting entry points. Or, if you prefer text, there is one on the ‘update of project’ page that offers a bit of a summary. we are also working now on index pages for archived audio and responses/ remixes to make our audio archives easier to brows.
and by the way, we enjoyed browsing the on-line work and links you put up. Esp. your text on cultural activism:http://thefertile.blogspot.com/2009/12/cultural-activism-and-activist-art.html
thanks for bearing with us (all DURBAN SINGS editorial team members, including myself, are not on-line at home)
ONE LOVE
claudia (radio continental drift)

I am fascinated by this project and would love to learn more about it’s conception, origin, and intentions. Please e-mail me so that we might begin a conversation on this work.

Mon, 20 Jul 2009 13:08:23 +0000http://durbansings.wordpress.com/?p=618#comment-62The movement will always be a movement even if people are ignorant, what ever message you send out irrespective whether the govenment does not want it or it does not speak about the new South Africa. It only speak out the independent mind of the situation that is happening out there, its ok. These broadcasting stations that we have they only speak about their friends, who they are, where are they attending the parties. Forgetting one thing that the are sitting on those chairs because of the people and they must speak about the lives of the people. They do not know radio journalism and representing the people of everyday life. They are just ”Western Photocopy Radio Deejays” the is still more that they must learn about themselves.

Rasa must only take over the platform that is runned by radio puppets.
